Taking a Stand Together: Bullying. No Way.
This week, the College proudly joins schools across Australia in recognising Bullying No Way Week - a national initiative that reminds us all that bullying is never acceptable.

The 2025 theme, “Be bold. Be kind. Speak up.”, calls on every member of our College community to take action, not just by raising awareness, but by fostering a culture where kindness, respect and inclusion are at the heart of everything we do.

Everyone in our school deserves to feel safe, respected and valued — whether that’s in the classroom, in the playground, during sport, or online. There is no place for bullying here.

Throughout this week and next, students are encouraged to reflect on what it means to speak up when something isn’t right, to support others who might be struggling, and to actively help create an environment where everyone feels they belong. Bullying prevention is not the responsibility of one person or group, it takes a whole community. Together, students, staff and families can make a powerful difference by modelling positive behaviours and challenging bullying wherever it occurs, both in and outside of the College.
